AnElephantCant stay calm when it’s Xmas
If anything he acts even dafter
As the seasonal bells jingle
He feels his tactile trunk tingle
And his ears flap with joy at the laughter
He hopes this Xmas will be a white one
But he has to keep warm when it snows
The whole house will be rocking
When he hangs up his stocking
If he gets a cold in his nose
He gets excited as all the small children
A million presents on a sleigh with reindeer
He keeps asking his mum
Will Santa get down the lum
Close your eyes dream sweet dreams never fear
He loves Xmas trees decorated with tinsel
Mince pies jelly and holiday cheer
Cards toys from Santa
From AnElephantCant a
Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year
Your Second Favourite Elephant Sends Seasons Greetings to both his readers
(and their mums)
anelephantcant 
Holidays greeting from a friend – I know you got more than plenty
But thought I would write – just in case you didn’t get any 😦
I would sing some special songs – maybe ten maybe twenty
But knew when you heard them you’d say
“Thanks but that’s too many!!!”
(Should have sent this Yesterday. xx)

AnElephantCant be with family this Christmas
This year he is left on the shelf
But he has no concern
He does not ever yearn
It is not only The Cat Who Walks By Himself
And all places are alike to him

What an ElefantCan’t
Shouldn’t be easy to accept
As he’s free to steal the sweets
Cold he’ll get not for his thefts.
…Yeah, I’ll stick to writing poems in my own language, they sound much better there. You’re amazing at those poems though and unique. Merry Christmas!

AnElephantCant thank Leonaa enough
We each have a song to be sung
AnElephant is praising
Your blog is amazing
And he can’t rhyme in your mother tongue
Thank you, Leonaa, for your visit and your so kind words.
What is your own language?
Best wishes and a mammoth hug

My language is (unfortunately) romanian…
And I shall hug you back
For your rhymes are charming
And my Christmas Tree is bald.
No need to praise my blog,
It’s just a nut into a world
And I feel sad I can’t convert
The cars into Santa’s sleigh.
Should the Elephant be dinning
At this hour of the day
Or the sun’s still shinning
Upon’s elephant’s day?
